Summary

This study tests whether adding evolocumab to the immunotherapy drug nivolumab can help control metastatic renal cell carcinoma that has not responded to prior treatments. Ten adults with clear-cell kidney cancer will receive the combination, and researchers will monitor safety and side effects. The goal is to improve disease control, not to cure the cancer.
